At BbWorld15 we introduced Blackboard’s renewed commitment to accessibility and released a strategy focused on Product Experiences, Organizational Culture, Education and Training, and Community Partnerships. Since then we’ve made significant progress in all of these areas. This session will provide some key updates about what we’ve been working on and where we’re heading in 2016. Participants will have an opportunity to provide feedback and help guide the continued evolution of the Blackboard Accessibility Community.

We are testing our new theme for Q4 2016 and the default course menu hover state does still fail the colour contrast check on WebAim, it doesnt have any other visual indicator either.

I have also noticed that a lot of links have no hover state across the site. I'm currently reviewing this now. The new theme certainly fixes some accessibility issues, but i'm worried it may introduce some more.
